“African Memories”

This is my last quilt , ready to pack in my suitcase as I leave tomorrow for a nice visit to the US : Minnesota, North Dakota, Wisconsi, Iowa .. and perhaps more ! My dear friends , Marcia and Marilyn have planned wonderful things including 2 quilt shows !

Unfortunately, time flew so fast these 2 last weeks that I didn’t had the time to post another article and photos… I will do this when I’ll be back ! I will meet Ruthann and some quilters from her group !

I also wanted to give you details about this quilt which inspired me so much … not enough time ! But if you understand some french or just to see some pictures , go to visit my other website : http://nanoupatch.fr

I like sharing my passions with other people all over the world ! I like doing patchwork and quilting and I love travelling ! The french-american friendship is very important for me, my best friends live in Minnesota and I'm lucky to have many friends in other states ! I was born in Africa where I grew up and came back to Belgium ( where I come from) when I was 16. that is why I'm so inspirated by Africa when I create a quilt ! I have two children : Sandra (33) and Nicolas(27). My husband was in the military and is recently retired. I live near a beautiful city in the east of France : Epinal which is twinned with La Crosse, Wisconsin. In January 2017, I decided with some friends of our quilting group in Epinal to share our passion with some quilters in La Crosse and the new adventure begins 6 months later !
